Guys and Dolls
When you see a guy
Reach for stars in the sky
You can beat that he's doin' it
For some doll.
When you spot a John
Waitin' out in the rain
Chances are he's insane
As only a John can be for a Jane.
When you meet the gent
Who pays all kinds of rent
For a flat that would just flatten
The Taj Mahal …
Call it sad … call it funny
But it's better than even money
That the guy's only doin' it
For some doll.
When you see a dame
Change the shape of her frame
You can lay odds she's takin' if off
For some guy.
When you find a doll
With her diamond in hock
Bet your life that the rock
Is goin' to restock some gentlemen jock.
When … you see a mouse
Hurry, scurry out of the house
And she runs twenty blocks
For cigars and rye …
Call if dumb … say it's clever
But you can give odds forever
That the doll's only doin' it …
The guy's havin' her do it …
Everybody's doin' it …
For … some guy …
